Pop Dottlo Explodes.
Duluth Herald.—The explosion of a pop bottle as he
was opening it, nearly cost
the life of Ed. McCuen, a
news ayent on the D. M. & N.
this morning.
The bottle blew up like a
miniature bomb, severing the
artery in the wrist and cutting a big* tendon in the lower
part of his arm. tThe flou* .,f
blood was profuse and had he
not reached a hospital in time
he might have bled to death
before medical attention could
be given to him.
The accident happen) d in
the baggage car. As soon as
the train pulled into the union
depot, McCuen was hurried
into a hack standing at theen-
trance and rushed at top
speed to St. Mary's hospital,
where Mr. Magie dressed his
wounds. It is expected that
he will be able to leave the
institution in a few days.
The accident is one of the
most unusual which has been
reported in manv months. It
is certain that the bottle contained a very heavy overcharge of gas used to charge
the ;*op.

extended to Aug. 1, next, and
will be returned to him by March
1 to be signed and have their
extention recorded. When sending their certificates to be extended, teachers must give
their address, age and number
of months taught.
In order that there shall be
no mis-understanding,all teach
ers whose certificates expire
Match 1, 1911, should send them
at once, with the above information, to the count}' superintendent.
Hereafter all teachers' certificates, whether obtained by
e.zamination.by renewal, oy extension, or otherwise, will be
dated Aug. 1. This is done to
simplify the records of this office; to have the date of certificates coincide with the beghi-
ing of the school year; and to
prevent the expiration of certificates during the school term.

Pop Dottlo Explodes.
Duluth Herald.—The explosion of a pop bottle as he
was opening it, nearly cost
the life of Ed. McCuen, a
news ayent on the D. M. & N.
this morning.
The bottle blew up like a
miniature bomb, severing the
artery in the wrist and cutting a big* tendon in the lower
part of his arm. tThe flou* .,f
blood was profuse and had he
not reached a hospital in time
he might have bled to death
before medical attention could
be given to him.
The accident happen) d in
the baggage car. As soon as
the train pulled into the union
depot, McCuen was hurried
into a hack standing at theen-

where Mr. Magie dressed his
wounds. It is expected that
he will be able to leave the
institution in a few days.
The accident is one of the
most unusual which has been
reported in manv months. It
is certain that the bottle contained a very heavy overcharge of gas used to charge
the ;*op.
